DerbyTup 10 #1 Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) No I don't think so for one minute. But it's about as silly as the thread about Wilder leaving United to take over Championship West Brom. In fact, actually, it may even be less silly than that. Because it would be a step-up for Bruce to be appointed as the new Newcastle United manager wouldn't it? The bookies have him at 20/1 to become the new Geordie boss but those odds won't stay high for too long I guess? 😉 Edited July 15, 2019 by nikki-red Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

NERVY-OWL 183 #3 Posted June 25, 2019 Can't see them wanting him, probably look abroad for their new manager. I don't pay much attention to bookies odds on managers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Mooks 58 #5 Posted June 25, 2019 Tell ye contracts mean nothing nowadays if a manager signs for so many years he should honor the club before he goes. Some just get greedy and want the money.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bash Street 10 #6 Posted June 25, 2019 Not sure where this ones going, has Ashley had direction from the new owners (if sale goes through), they may have their own man lined up. I wouldn't have thought swapping Benitez for Wilder or Bruce would be a good move to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

iansheff 83 #8 Posted July 9, 2019 This was on the Sky transfer centre at 13.20. BREAKING NEWS Steve Bruce is one of the names under consideration to take over at Newcastle United. He’s been backed in to 9/4 favourite with some major bookmakers overnight. Last night he was as big as 33/1. Bruce is Newcastle-born, but of course previously managed rivals Sunderland. Newcastle fly to China for the Asia Cup on Saturday and they are keen to replace Rafa Benitez before then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
